Advantages of freezing eggs – a summary

a. If we freeze 10-20 eggs we know that statistically there is a good chance of making enough embryos to have a successful pregnancy or two. That assurance is priceless. b. Since the oocyte preservation has happened at the younger age, the risk of having a successful outcome is much higher than the real age of the same woman, when she has these embryos reinserted in her womb. c. Apart from success of an IVF attempt, the risks of having a Down’s baby or other numerical chromosomal abnormalities, is lower at the younger age so in some ways though the woman may be nearing her forties, the risk of having a Down’s baby is based on the age at which her eggs were frozen. d. If the woman conceives spontaneously having frozen of eggs before, she can always donate her eggs to a needy couple and again priceless, altruistic satisfaction.
